Karen E. Quinones Miller
“When someone tells me "no," it doesn't mean I can't do it, it simply means I can't do it with them.”
Karen E. Quinones Miller

P.G. Wodehouse
“And she's got brains enough for two, which is the exact quantity the girl who marries you will need.”

Jon Meacham, The Soul of America: The Battle for Our Better Angels

“Give a man a mask and he will show his true face”
- Oscar Wilde.
